Yes, the sentence "the boy and the rabbit are in the park" is grammatically correct. It correctly uses subject-verb agreement, where the plural subjects "the boy and the rabbit" are matched with the plural verb "are."
Yes, the sentence "A pair of shoes is left on the floor" is correct. It uses proper subject-verb agreement, as "pair" is a singular noun. Therefore, it correctly pairs with the singular verb "is."
The correct sentence uses "has criticized" because the subject "a famous animal rights activist" is singular and requires the singular verb form "has." The phrase "did you know" sets up the question but does not affect the subject-verb agreement in the main clause. Additionally, "criticized" is the past participle form used with "has" to indicate a completed action relevant to the present.
Their house is over there; they're not there.
No, the verb is not correct. The subject noun 'group' is singular (one group). The correct sentence is:"Your group is unable to decide on an effective presentation method."
In this sentence, it would be clearer to say, "all staff use whole group instruction."
In the sentence "Sweet are the uses of adversity," "sweet" functions as a subject complement rather than a subject or predicate. The subject of the sentence is "the uses of adversity," while "are" serves as the linking verb connecting the subject to the complement "sweet." Thus, the sentence as a whole asserts that the uses of adversity are characterized as sweet.
A simple sentence uses a subject and a verb..
The one that is NOT a sentence fragment and uses correct sentence grammar is:He liked to go fishing.
The sentence, "A bicyclist uses their legs to power their bike." is not incorrect based on the fact that the bicyclist is a general word for any bicyclist, not identified as a male or a female. It is appropriate to use the plural, non-gender specific pronoun for a singular person in general. You can edit the sentence to read: "A bicyclist uses his legs to power his bike." Or: "A bicyclist uses her legs to power her bike." The sentence, "A monkey can move from tree to tree by swinging with its legs and tail." also uses a correct pronoun antecedent agreement.
